GIMP 3.0 has been more than one decade in the making as the port from GTK2 to GTK3, also transitioning away from Python 2 to Python 3 support, and a wealth of other improvements from the UI to lower down into enhancing this open-source Photoshop alternative.

The GIMP project announced on X/Twitter today that they have entered the string freeze for this much anticipated release.

...and new font handling, several layer features - including tools working on multiple layers, new and improved tools, wayland support, widows Ink support, new plugin architecture, dynamic guides, improved file handling (formats, bigger files, etc), I think some gesture stuff as well? The non destructive editing is implemented for some things, not others (e.g. if adding a shadow to text and changing the text, the shadow will change too). I probably forgot some stuff..

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
